Dancehall singer Cynthia Morgan,[/b] also known as Madrina, shares insights on how she successfully prevented industry players from sexually harassing her.
Madrina delves into her experiences with sexual harassment in the music industry through an open post that she later removed from her Instagram story.
She expresses her astonishment at never having encountered such harassment, attributing her assertive interpersonal skills and tomboyish demeanor to this fortunate outcome.
Cynthia Morgan reflects on the unfortunate reality faced by many Nigerian female singers and how it hampers their pursuit of success in the music industry.
In her own words:
“When I tell people I never witnessed sexual harassment in the music industry they are always surprised. Firstly, in real life, I was a tomboy and secondly, I always use to threaten people on how I will import people from Benin to fuck everybody up. Then they fear me for that Lagos.
It’s just so sad how being feminine and wanting to be successful makes you prey. I really pray for a better Nigeria/world.Stay tough.God will see us through”.
